Motivational Profiles in TIMSS Mathematics
This open access book presents a person-centered exploration of student profiles, using variables related to motivation to do school mathematics derived from the IEA’s Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) data. Statistical cluster analysis is used to identify groups of students with similar motivational profiles, across grades and over time, for multiple participating countries. While motivational variables systematically relate to school outcomes, linear relationships can obscure the diverse makeup of student subgroups, each with varying combinations of motivation, emotions, and attitudes. In this book, a person-centered analysis of distinct and meaningful motivat...

Insights in Assessment, Testing, and Applied Measurement: 2022
As we enter the third decade of the 21st century, the field of education plays a more crucial role in understanding the contemporary world than ever before. Analyzing the role of education in leading and driving change through policy, practice, and constant innovation for a more inclusive education, whether it being educating students or teachers, is crucial in the development of new and improved education systems worldwide. To this end, Frontiers in Education is organizing a series of Research Topics to highlight the latest advancements in the field. This editorial initiative, led by Dr Gavin Brown, Specialty Chief Editor of the Assessment, Testing and Applied Measurement section, is focused on new insights, novel developments, current challenges, recent advances, and future perspectives in the field of assessment in education.
Emotions in Second Language Teaching
This edited volume explores the multifaceted nature of teacher emotions, presenting current research from different approaches and perspectives, focused towards the second language classroom. Twenty three chapters by well-known scholars from the applied linguistics, TESOL and educational psychology fields provide the reader with a holistic picture of teacher emotions, making this collection a significant contribution to the field of second language teaching. Given the emotional nature of teaching, the book explores a number of key issues or dimensions of L2 teachers’ emotions that were until now rarely considered. The contributions present the views of a select group of applied linguistic researchers and L2 teacher educators from around the world. This international perspective makes the book essential reading for both L2 teachers and teacher educators.

Family, Bullying and Cyberbullying
Despite the significant decrease in bullying that has been reported in many countries during the last two decades, bullying continues to be a significant problem among young people. Given the increase of internet use among youth, researchers have started to pay attention to cyberspace, understanding that it may be a fertile ground for bullying behaviors, specifically, what is known as cyberbullying. “Family, Bullying and Cyberbullying” examines the association of several family variables with bullying in offline and online environments during childhood and adolescence. Contributors from the Americas, Canada, Asia, and Europe offer cutting-edge research on family dynamics, bystander behav...
